A Cattle Call Podcast production, this daily podcast is an objective, news-only show that equips listeners for the day ahead. Monday thru Friday and under five minutes per episode, this podcast gives you a rundown on what's happening around the world, all while you brush your teeth and fix your hair!
Fun fact: the original idea for the Panama Canal came in the 16th century, but it wasn't until the 20th century when Teddy Roosevelt pulled the trigger on the project. Another fun fact: more ships have gotten stuck in the Suez Canal this year than the Panama Canal.
